This project will retrieve some things that are not completely lost, not completely forgotten: a collaborative artists’ book / ideas for exhibitions / project proposals that have ideas that stick / drawings about walks / drawings about mountains / 8mm films / photographs / dialogues.

“The plan was for me to simply continue
to write (not so simple) and to produce a new text every day - as well as a
scan. Therefore my work would be self-documenting. Of course this immediately
draws attention to the restricted and selective nature of all/any
documentation/documenting process”jvs

Redemptive gestures
Yesterday I put the animation rostrum
designed and made for me by my father ,and consigned to the weather without my
knowledge, into my car.
Today I placed it on the floor of the gallery, under the stair
case, and began to write a text about the 8 mm animated films I
made with the help of this contraption.
